I have chapped lips all year. This product works really well for my chapped lips, but I stopped using it because I've read that it has ingredients that is addictive.

In search of a great lip balm, I picked up a stick of Carmex, original flavor/scent, with spf 15. It works somewhat similar to the original pot, although the sunscreen made the texture a little...

Carmex is the best, it moisturizes lips better than any other, it's amazing, it's in a leauge of it's own. No other lip balm comes close to Carmex. Even though the cap form is kind of annoying it...

My hubby swears by this stuff, but I think its horrible. Every time I have used it my lips swell and hurt. The taste is and smell is disgusting. Plus I hate having to dig my fingers into the tin.

It's a good product, but I just can't stand the taste. It's horrible. I prefer Blistex, tbh.

My staple lip balm before bed. It makes dry and cracked lips stop hurting instantly... Ok, the smell and taste are bad but it is a medicine balm! It works and if something works, well I will use it...

Though i do agree that the smell & taste of carmex isn't the most pleasant, I must say I love this product. I have tubes lying around the house. The product does it's job- it prevents cold sores...

Godsend for cold sores. I had been using Abreva which dries sores out (it didn't work well), and when my doctor suggested Carmex to keep them moist, I went to the store and bought it right away....

I'm not a fan of Carmex. I understand that it's supposed to be medicinal, which explains the horrible smell and taste, but after years of trying EVERYTHING under the sun for my very full, often...

I have trusted and used this product so long that it feels like an old friend when I need it most. It works, period. I use it when I have chapped lips of course, but it also works on the little...

Amazing product! I use this on my lips with a light brushing and it removes all the little flakes and leaves my lips smooth, especially when the weather is too cold or I'm dehydrated. This leaves...

This is the BEST for healing my dry chapped peeling lips. For everyday use, I love Lush Honey Trap but for extremely dry lips only Carmex will do. When they are so chapped they burn, this instantly...

I've been using carmex for about 20 years and have always seen other brands become more popular but I don't know why. This is an excellent all year round lip balm, with good consistancy and a...

I used to use this when I was really little and decided to try it again since I heard a bunch of great reviews on this. It seems like most of the youtube guru's use it as well. I got it for 94...

Carmex rules as a nighttime treatment. I slather it all over my lips and in between my nose and top lip overnight, and wake up to them smooth and silky. Works far better than Vaseline, which is...

When I first saw this product, I thought it was superglue. I'm not really fond of the smell and I don't like having to squeeze the tube then applying it in my opinion. On the otherhand, it stays...

This is a decent lip balm. At first it always gets a little too minty for me. Makes me really uncomfortable. But after a while it gets better. It has a light scent, not bad, better than...
